BBQ and Clean-up day! 17th August

Come to the barbecue and clean-up day!

With support from the council, we're having a clean-up day, with litter picking across the RA area -  come and join in, and stop by for the BBQ.

Eid Mubarak!

Eid al-Fitr - a celebration at the end of Ramadan starts at sunset and continues tomorrow 8th August, based on the sighting of the new moon.
(please also see the post on Ramadan)

As this is so close to the weekend, celebrations may extend into Friday and Saturday!

This is a time for celebration for Muslims, when people gather to celebrate with family and friends.

Bear in mind traffic may be increased, especially along the "Curry Mile", and with the Caribbean Carnival, there's lots to celebrate in Moss Side this weekend!

Peace and Joy to all during the festivities!
